One thing that will hoild true is for every advantage there is a disadvantage. You will always find the is a tradeoff. The more drastic you go the greater the cons. Look it all over first and make a descision on what you want and what you are willing to live with. Once you sign it's yours and thats it.
Roadsters are subject to the weather but you can see and be seen. Weather is sometimes a good thing sometime it's bad. You may like the wind in your hair or in my case on my head. Chances are your wife or grill friend will sometime have iiisues with all that. Sun is a good thing but I like cloudy dry days . I usually wear a ball cap. I have to make sure I do not look up at speed . Usally I can't pull the hat any further down on my head. Sunglasses limit how far down I can pull the hat. And I buy sunglasses that tend to wrapp around to stop the air from causing my eyes to tear up. Roadsters leak. My Uncle described it as the type of car that you want to make sure the water can get out.
You can't realy secure a roadster ,you have to pick your parking spots and watch out for your car and your stuff. Last week I drove downtown to meet my wife for lunch. I circled the block four times to find a spot. Then I watched it rain in and on m,y car while I watched from an office window. Her friends found a parking spot on the way to the resturant about half a block from the resturant door. While in the restuant I heard a loud exhaust noise something like my car makes (Ithought it was my car). I jumped up to see and missed the step on the raised floor of our booth and stumbled ,turns out to be a couple of drag cars on a flatbed truck and trailer.
If you want to hear the noise that your car makes it's great. I don't know what good a radio would be in my car.
Colors are a big thing. My car is white . It's cool to the touch but hard on the eyes in the bright sunnlight, sun glasses help. The darker you go the hotter the side of the car. Black seats get hot in the bright sun , take a towel.
Do you think I have an oppinion? I had a car before and hav had this car since August of 99. What else did you want to hear about. I can tel a tail.
